I can tell you a little about that. I have both clones and re-veged 6 out of 10 of my best mothers. If you cut the mothers back right then she will bounce back pretty quikly and at least for mine, they passed up the clones in about a week and 1/2. Yes, I got pics.
I'm doing mostly G13 Haze and Jack the Ripper and have crossed them with Sweet God.
The babies are easily identifiable from the way they grow. G13 Haze x Sweet God is shorter, more stout and the Jack the Ripper x Sweet God is taller but one thing about both is they are very pungent and fast growers. Anyways, The clones I have do not compare to the mothers I reveged. If you use Seaweed it will help your moms reveg faster and they will love you for it. I use Alaska Fish Fertilizer 5-1-1 and Sea weed and Earth Juice Grow and primal harvest solution guano powder for my veging and I only use Earth Juice Bloom,seaweed, mollases and I make my own organic tea and they are growing pretty good. I have seedlings also and they have almost caught up with the clones already.
I consider that a good fruit tree needs to be pruned properly if you want better fruit next year. If you are interested in how I prune my mothers back when I really want to grow them out again, let me know and I will shoot ya some pics to go with instructions.
Keep a good lady till ya get tired of her but when ya get hold of a great lady, keep her, nurture her and she will stay with ya and serve ya for many faithful years.
